Show Notes
As a sensuous Catwoman seduces Sydney society and Perth’s Ugly Men stage their annual carnival at Uglieland, ugly meanie Mussolini uses his new executive powers to protect fascist Italy from having fun while Elon Musk's original man crush Nikola Tesla predicts a wireless world where you can watch an American presidential inauguration on your pocket-sized screen device.
This week's bonus episode for subscribers delves into the identity of the Masked Dancer, who was a household name in mid 20th century Australia for a career that extended from vaudeville to videotape.
